Who we are

Student-run: We depend on student volunteers for every element of our operations. Students write and edit nearly every piece that the paper publishes. They determine how the paper will look in print and online, and get it to the reader. They sell the advertising that supports the paper’s operations. The strength of the paper, the depth and breadth of its coverage, depends on the contributions of students like you.

Independent: The students running The Maroon determine its editorial line and approaches to the stories it covers. We sell ads to cover the costs of publication—The Maroon does not receive funding from the University or from Student Government for its daily operations, and it is not a registered student organization. Our staff elects our leadership every winter quarter.

University-focused: The Maroon is the only independent news organization dedicated to covering the University of Chicago. More than 14,000 students attend the University, and its function as an institution of higher education only begins to describe its role. It is a landowner and developer. It is an employer—the largest on the South Side. It is an investor, to the tune of $12 billion. An institution that sprawling and powerful demands scrutiny.
